Dale, if you go to my thread "Carrier Assembly; helpful hints tricks and traps"
Post #8 refers to diff bearings. Timken 3920 is Ford BB-4222 Timken 3984 is Ford BB-4221-B The outer bearing is Timken53375 cup and 53176 cone. The drill bit in the axle shows the tell tale hole. The Ford 8 sided spanner is shown. I have not hunted for pictures of the outer hub seals. Inner hub seal BB-1175-c is shown in the last photo. It is held in the hub by a circlip.

The bearings are used on the Ferguson and Fordson Dexta tractors, think they are the diff ones but cannot confirm as not got the details to hand but easy to obtain and reasonable prices. regards, Richard

Is it best to pre load the brake rod onto the 635-3 LEVER BRAKE OPERATING I notice when brakes are off it's sitting just above the wedge brake operating ball ? Dale

Brakes
Hi Dale, I take it you have noticed this with your drum off, which probably to get the drum off the shoes have been slackened back?, so with drum on and adjusted right, there should be positive "feel" Make sure you centralise the shoes first and then adjust the top and then maybe back to the bottom to readjust the centralising of the shoes and then back to the top again for clearance. I have my drums machined and the shoes radius so they are exact. This is why some carriers get a poor reputation for handling because the brakes are not properly set up . My carrier could idle around in it,s own length, and obviously when you run your carrier and they get hot , you also have to make sure you are not too tight on your clearance between drum and shoe. There is no place for a feeler gauge like jeeps have, that they use to check your clearance, it is all done by "feel". Cheers Andrew.

With drums off , as I'm new to this older brakes setting up stuff ! when I'm playing with set up , to see how things work under the brake drums , looks like the bottom adjustment moves it left to right and top opens and closes the top of brakes shoes . Am I on track with that comment or am I missing something
